It’s the feeling when you meet someone that you’re going to fall in love with them. “There’s a Japanese phrase that I like: koi no yokan. Their personal stories are incredibly touching, and it’s a much-needed reminder that every person has their own struggle and story. 💖 One of my favorite things about this book is that we also read from the perspectives of some of the side characters. I will warn you ahead of time that there is insta-love. 💞 Okay, technically it’s not insta-love but the possibility of falling in love.

Something about Natasha makes me think that fate has something much more extraordinary in store-for both of us. But when I see her, I forget about all that. Falling in love with him won’t be my story.ĭaniel: I’ve always been the good son, the good student, living up to my parents’ high expectations.
